A ascensão da milícia xiita Hezbollah no ano de 1982, em meio à Guerra Civil do Líbano (1975-1990), significou uma série de mudanças profundas no cenário sociopolítico libanês. Dessa forma, a ...pesquisa analisa o desempenho do chamado Partido de Deus como agente fomentador de uma nova identidade nacional no país, fazendo referência à ideia de um "Estado dentro do Estado" sob a perspectiva dos efeitos da Guerra de 2006. Assim, o objetivo principal é identificar o impacto do Partido na dinamização da sociedade libanesa, bem como as consequências para o âmbito político. Para isso, foi utilizada tanto revisão bibliográfica quanto análise histórico-conceitual para compreender a real influência da organização em uma nova identidade nacional libanesa.
The ruler and the dynasty and the Syrian state's institutions have won the battle, but it is doubtful whether this is the victory of a 'Syrian identity' that the Syrian regime has sought to promote ...in recent decades. It seems, therefore, that the built-in tension between the components of the Syrian state identity remains the same and so do the doubts regarding the degree of identification and commitment of the Syrians to their country. Thus, the question of identity, which has been a key question throughout Syrian history, remains a relevant question for the future of the Syrian state. The civil war that broke out in Syria in the spring of 2011 witnessed ups and downs and sharp turnarounds, some entirely unforeseen. After nearly a decade of bloody fighting, the war was finally nearly over. While the restoration of stability and peacemaking in the country remain remote, if at all viable objectives, the fighting on the battlefield has been decided and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has ended with the upper hand.

However, this study and analysis somehow or the other takes into account the Urdu short story written before 1947.
By employing discourse-historical approach and corpus linguistics, this paper examines media reports to analyze the Chinese official discourse in the context of the COVID-19 outbreak. The results ...demonstrate that a paradox of globalism and nationalism has been simultaneously reflected when reporting the global pandemic. Based on a polarizing discursive construction of positive “self” and negative “others,” on many occasions, the globalist and nationalist arguments have been closely intertwined and complement each other to reinforce the legitimacy of the ruling party at home and the international reputation of China under the leadership of the ruling party.
El fútbol se convierte en parte o en elemento determinante de la identidad nacional, en el terreno de las minorías, el fútbol en muchos casos es un instrumento para la desvinculación de la nación que ...compone la mayoría y del Estado dominado por dicha mayoría. El deporte y en él el fútbol, juega un papel muy importante a la hora de hacer hincapié en su identidad nacional y por medio de él se refuerza la identidad cultural de los catalanes. En Cataluña el fútbol sirve también para demostrar la postura política de los catalanes, su selección nacional y el equipo FC Barcelona simbolizan y representan toda Cataluña.
Football has become a determining part of local, national identity, in minority environment, in several places football is also a means of separation from the majority nation and the state ruled by the majority. Sport and within this, football plays a special role in the emphasis of their national identity; as with its help Catalans strengthen their own national culture. Football is also a political statement in Catalonia, as they attach political importance to their own national team and to FC Barcelona which represents and symbolises their whole nation and Catalonia.

In recent years, Americans have become more affectively polarized: that is, ordinary Democrats and Republicans increasingly dislike and distrust members of the opposing party. Such polarization is ...normatively troubling, as it exacerbates gridlock and dissensus in Washington. Given these negative consequences, I investigate whether it is possible to ameliorate this partisan discord. Building on the Common Ingroup Identity Model from social psychology, I show that when subjects’ sense of American national identity is heightened, they come to see members of the opposing party as fellow Americans rather than rival partisans. As a result, they like the opposing party more, thereby reducing affective polarization. Using several original experiments, as well as a natural experiment surrounding the July 4th holiday and the 2008 summer Olympics, I find strong support for my argument. I conclude by discussing the implications of these findings for efforts to reduce polarization more generally.
This study explores the role of China's rural tourism in building domestic tourists' national identity, with a model illustrating the construction path and causality. In-depth interviews were ...conducted with domestic tourists, and grounded theory was adopted as the qualitative analysis method. The conceptualised theoretical framework suggests that with embodied experience as the premise, feelings and emotions, cognition and learning, and collective memory are the main attributes influencing national identity. Under the combined influence of these factors, strong emotional bonding, awareness of unity, and cognition of the characteristics of their own ‘community’ are generated, effectively shaping and strengthening national identity. These findings also serve as a practical reference for strengthening national identity and improving the management of rural tourism destinations.
In Hungarian the word ’local’ refers to a somewhat inferior and subordinated term correlated to national identity. Therefore, local identity is handled as merely a subnational category. However, if ...we speak of local identity as a historic phenomenon, it can be seen as a directly inaccessible category which once implied notions of networks and extensively interacted with the national identity itself. The towns on the Great Hungarian Plain experienced rapid urbanisation and social change in the second half of the 19th century that arose the question regarding the identities of the inhabitants. Many archaic, local rites were still in use, yet under the aegis of modernisation new, general values became universal. In these circumstances people sought the best forms to express their thoughts, mentality and vernacular while living a modern lifestyle. Their demand for regional orientation has not been studied yet. Researching these historic practices, long forgotten rituals and traditions may overwrite the way we now think of these as simple juxtapositions. e history of these techniques of localisation and identication goes far beyond the subnational perspective. These traditions, that are considered to be of local importance, help us understand social, artistic and architectural changes. us the history of urbanisation, especially the urbanisation of the country, which is oen told eschatologically, can be better understood.
The conflict in Ukraine has triggered a process of rebuilding the self-image of most Romanians. Massive support for refugees has shown others, but also for themselves, that Romanians help their ...neighbours when they run into difficulties, that they sacrifice their goods and time, and even their security to support those with whom they had disagreements in the past. The Bureau of Social Research survey highlights the reasons for this identity narrative that puts at its core social virtues such as tolerance, love, heroism, sacrifice. Compared to the old identity narrative that highlights resentment, self-contempt, submission to any stranger, betrayal of any principles, values, or allies, the BCS survey shows a profound change that can have consequences on many aspects of social life.
